A simple hallelujah<\/p>\n
For the dirt under my nails<\/p>\n
For the sky that \u00a0makes the rain<\/p>\n
And the sun that shines above<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
A heartfelt hosannah<\/p>\n
For the grass beneath my feet<\/p>\n
For the bees that kiss the flowers<\/p>\n
And the breeze that cools my cheeks<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
A psalm of pure devotion<\/p>\n
For the child who loves me so<\/p>\n
For his innocent devotion<\/p>\n
And his pure, untrodden soul<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
A hymn of fervent thanks<\/p>\n
For the accident of life<\/p>\n
For the force that forms the molecules<\/p>\n
And keeps the stars apart<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
A paean of deep gratitude<\/p>\n
For\u00a0each moment that I have<\/p>\n
For though I bitch and moan a lot<\/p>\n
I’m glad for what I’ve got.<\/p>\n
